BattleDogs Arena Deploys Fierce Game Combat on Neon EVM with Battle-Card Game

Today, we announce the deployment of BattleDogs Arena on Neon EVM, adding to the gaming dApps on the ecosystem with its virtual card game. BattleDogs Arena allows players to collect cards by minting them or purchasing them from other players to win PvP (player versus player) matchups. It combines competitive, skill-based gameplay with NFT collectibles. BattleDogs Arena is now available on the Neon EVM network.

A New Breed of Game on Neon EVM

BattleDogs Arena offers a unique blend of PvP action, card-game strategy, and NFT ownership, inviting players to join intense battles with customizable NFT-based battle cards —Neondogs. Players can mint these Neondog NFTs, each with distinct traits and abilities, and use them in virtual card combat to earn in-game rewards, climb the leaderboards, and engage with a growing community of crypto players.

Deploying on Neon EVM was a strategic decision by the BattleDogs Arena team. Neon EVM is the first parallel processing EVM live on Solana mainnet and has the capability of harnessing Solana’s Selevel parallel technology benefits while maintaining an EVM-compatible environment. By leveraging Solana's parallel processing capabilities, Neon EVM delivers Solana’s seamless, high-throughput, and low-latency gaming experience and allows this via popular programming languages like Solidity, Vyper and popular tools like HardHat, Remix, MetaMask etc.

This makes Neon EVM positioned to support Web3 games like BattleDogs Arena by enabling access to the Solana environment without any Rust programming. For game developers, this translates into building a smooth gaming experience where blockchain complexities are handled under the hood, leaving them to focus on the player's action.

Battle for Supremacy in the Arena

In BattleDogs Arena, players can choose from a range of Neondog NFTs, each bringing its own strengths and abilities to the battlefield. These NFTs are not just collectibles—they are integral to gameplay, evolving and leveling up as players compete in PvP battles. As players engage in fast-paced combat, they earn in-game rewards, rank up their Neondogs, and rise through the ranks to prove their dominance in the arena. Players can also customize their Neondogs, adding strategic layers to how they approach each battle.

How to Get Started

Getting into the action is simple:

1. Mint Neondog NFT: Head over to the BattleDogs Arena marketplace to mint your own Neondog NFT. Each Neondog comes with distinct traits that influence its performance in battle.
2. Join the Arena: Enter the arena to engage in fast-paced combat. The game mechanics are easy to learn but challenging to master, offering a good experience for both casual and competitive players.
3. Earn In-Game Rewards:As you participate in battles, you may earn in-game currency, which can be used to upgrade Neondogs to earn a distinct advantage over other players.
4. Connect Wallet:The Neon EVM network allows BattleDogs Arena players to easily connect their wallets, enabling smooth gameplay.
